Love bade me welcome
...
f Teach me my God and King
George Herbert wrote, but never published, some
of the very greatest English poetry, recording in an
astonishing variety of forms his inner experiences
of grief, recovery, hope, despair, anger, fulfilment
and
-
above all else
-
love.
He was born in
1593
and died at the age of
39
in
1633,
before the clouds of civil war gathered, his
family aristocratic and his upbringing privileged.
He showed worldly ambition and seemed sure
of high public office and a career at court, but
then for a time lost himself in a humble way ,
devoting himself to the restoration of the church
at Leighton Bromswold in Huntingdonshire and
then to his parish of Bemerton, a mile and a half
from Salisbury, whose cathedral music he called
my heaven on earth . When in the year of his death
his friend Nicholas
Ferrar,
leader of the quasi-
monastic community at Little Gidding, published
Herbert s poems under the title The Temple, his
fame was quickly established.
Because he published no English poems during
his lifetime, and dating most of them exactly is
impossible, writing Herbert s biography is an
unusual challenge. In this book John Drury sets
the poetry in the whole context of the poet s life
and times, so that the reader can understand the
frame of mind and kind of society which produced
it, and depth can be added to the narrative of
Herbert s life (T. S. Eliot: What we can confidently
believe is that every poem in the book
[lbe
Temple]
is in tune to the poet s experience ). His Herbert
is not the saintly figure who has come down to us
from Izaak Walton, but a man torn for much of his
life between worldly ambition and the spiritual
life shown to us so clearly through his writings.
The result is the most satisfying biography of this
exceptional English poet yet written.

JOHN DRURY is Chaplain and Fellow of All
Souls College, Oxford. He began as a biblical
scholar and, while Dean of King s College,
Cambridge, worked with Frank Kermode on the
Gospels for The
Uttrar]
Guide to the Bible, which
sharpened his sense of the role of imagination in
the formation of the Gospel stories. He took this
interest further, and into the realm of Christian
paintings and their meaning, in Painting the Word,
written while he was Dean of Christ Church,
Oxford. Music at Midnight is the culmination of a
lifetime s interest in Herbert, whose Complete Poetry
he is now editing for Penguin Classics.
